On October 6th, 2013, Tony, Micah and I headed through Constrychnine Canyon. It's an engaging canyon with fantastic scenery.

Tony and Micah are excellent company; they also happen to be very talented canyoneers. It was great to share this adventure with them! :gents:

Random thoughts:
The rope grooves in photo #1 were are all preventable. Extending the anchor at this drop is so easy a caveman could do it.
Anybody bitching about the missing bolts on rap #2 is as blind as a bat. There is a mother hugging tree 50 feet back from the drop that works great! The tree anchor allows for an easy start and also eliminates the possibility of leaving a rope groove (some were present above the RDC boulders). Also, we could easily move some of the boulders on the RDC side above the drop. Yes, one of them had webbing around it. :eek2:
This exit is very easy and highly recommended: 38
